Armani LUMINOUS SILK FOUNDATION 4.5

Product Information

As its name suggests, Armani Luminous Silk Foundation provides a gorgeous luminous glow to your skin. I’ve never used a foundation or highlighter that provides a natural, healthy glow reminiscent of how I look after a spa facial. So it makes sense why celebrities like Meghan Markle, Cate Blanchett, and Kim Kardashian often sport this foundation on and off the red carpet. GLOW My skin has a glow with this foundation, without looking too dewy in the t-zone, which I have found very rare with dewier finish foundations! It’s radiant in all the right areas, but still dries down and sets and feels like wearing nothing. Thanks to its glowy finish, Armani Luminous Silk is ideal for dry, normal, and mature skin types — even oily skin like mine. Anyone with oily and acne-prone skin can also enjoy this iconic foundation with a little finessing. Woman&Home Beauty Counter is also offering free samples of Armani Luminous Silk Foundation to select users.

Complete your iconic ‘Armani Glow’ look with products from the LUMINOUS SILK range: prep skin with the LUMINOUS SILK hydrating primer, correct and highlight with the multi-purpose LUMINOUS SILK concealer and enhance your glow with Fluid Sheer liquid highlighter. Depending on the shade you choose, you can use it as a highlighter, bronzer or finishing powder. Choose 2 or 3 shades lighter than your Luminous Silk Foundation to highlight and 2 or 3 shades darker to warm the complexion or define the features. When I have more shades, I will update you on that! Using Glow Fusion Powder as a Bronzer I do not love the fact that it is so pricey and also I would not recommend this product for people with very oily skin who do need to set their makeup with heavy duty powder since powder tends to take away the luminosity of this foundation away, which is the best part of the product. Hear me out: I already expected this foundation to deliver a radiant glow to my face, but I have very oily skin. Since I start to look greasy after 2 to 3 hours of wear with just a setting powder, I'll use a face primer and makeup setting spray when I want my foundation to last all day in the summer. If you’re a regular around here, you will know that I am not big on powder. In fact, with a few exceptions, I generally try to avoid it. However, the Armani Luminous Silk Glow Fusion Powder is different! Here’s what you need to know!Here are the swatches: Armani Luminous Silk Glow Fusion Powder Swatches – 4, 5.5, 6.5, 8, 11.5 My Review

LONGEVITY I have worn this foundation for 12+ hours and it looks exactly the same at the end of the day, with only some slight fading around the corners of my nose. If you're not 100% sure of your closest match, take the 30-second shade match questionnaire listed as “Find your shade” under the colors. And when I'm in a pinch, aka too lazy to clean my makeup brushes, I can even use my fingers to apply and blend out this foundation without any noticeable lines of demarcation. The same can't be said about most foundations I've tested, so it's something that I appreciate from Armani. Flexible microspheres blend into the skin’s surface for a seamless finish that blurs away the appearance of fine lines Silky, lightweight fluid foundation for seamless application. Create your natural-looking glowing skin look with multi-award winning LUMINOUS SILK foundation, an oil-free fluid with exclusive Micro-fil™ technology which helps to sculpt and brighten the skin, improving texture and blurring imperfections. The formula is infused with glycerin to provide all-day hydration.I know that there are few people who thought that this was a bronzer launch, however, I can confirm that this is, in fact, an all over powder and you simply need to choose the same shade as you use a shade that works with your Luminous Silk foundation. My shade is 4.

Really and truly, the only downside I can see is that the foundation is pricey. But I absolutely feel like the quality of it’s the finish justifies the price. I only have the highest praise for this foundation. Finishing Spray: Anyone with normal, dry, or mature skin should consider using a finishing spray made with moisturizing ingredients to melt the makeup into your skin for an extra glowy look. MAC Fix+ is a great water-based spray that uses a blend of soothing green tea, chamomile, and cucumber to hydrate and add a nice sheen to the skin. Inspired by the sheen and soft texture of silk, the Luminous Silk Foundation formula contains light reflecting particles that enhance the skin's natural glow. It can be applied in a single, light layer, or built up to provide a little more coverage. This is quite an expensive foundation, though a 30 ml bottle does tend to last very well. The product listed above does not contain SPF; if this is something you want in your foundation, maybe take a look at the Giorgio Armani Lasting Silk UV (30ml) instead. Giorgio Armani MakeupI have shade 4 which is the perfect all over powder for all my foundations. This is the same shade as I am in the Luminous Silk liquid foundation and also the concealer. Apply a small amount of foundation using a blender brush to even skin tone and create a polished look. Ingredients And don't worry — I found from personal testing that the short quiz is incredibly accurate. After noting that I use Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush Flawless Foundation in 9 Cool, Sephora's AI bots suggest I buy Luminous Silk Foundation in shade 9, which is my go-to color. In other words, it's incredibly accurate, and you can totally trust it. Oil-Free Formula If you are looking for a weightless, liquid foundation that leaves a natural, dewy finish, Giorgio Armani Luminous Silk Foundation is definitely one to consider. It has a super lightweight formula and can be applied lightly to the face or layered to give full coverage. It is available in 24 shades and each is named via a number. Armani Luminous Silk Foundation is also an oil free foundation and is best suited to normal skin. Giorgio Armani Luminous Silk Foundation

Also, I credit the light (but not at all watery) liquid texture that blends like a dream for leaving my skin smooth and never cakey. Thanks to its undetectable coverage, this foundation is the true embodiment of a “my skin, but better” foundation.

What is Armani Luminous Silk Glow Fusion Powder? Armani Luminous Silk Glow Fusion Powder PHOTO FRIENDLY The Armani Luminous Silk foundation is one of the most best looking foundations in photos (while still looking flawless in real life). I think this is a great wedding and bridal foundation, because it looks perfect in pictures, flash and no-flash. The formula adds a glow to foundation with its super fine particles of pearl. It looks a little like a bronzer in the pan but it is an all over powder and it gives a thin film that melts into the skin delivering a luminous glow. The texture becomes one with the skin and is excellent for blurring fine lines and pores – everything looks kind of airbrushed. Shade 4 How to choose your shade
